4. To fully seat the profile, hit it on the inside

edge using a drawing motion (pull the hammer

towards you upon impact)(see fig. 10) all the

way around the profile. If the tyre has been fully

deflated, perform this stage with no air in the

tyre, again at 15-20 psi pressure and once again

at full pressure.

The above process can be viewed in the 'How to'

section of our website.

Changing your Tyres

In most cases the tyre can be changed without

removing or disturbing the AlloyGator by treating

it as the rim of the wheel, i.e. keep the head of the

machine a couple of millimetres away from the

profile. The tyre can be removed and refit over the

profile.

When changing a tyre in this way, ensure that the

joining clip located by the valve is at the 2 o'clock

position on the tyre machine before you start

levering the tyre at the 12 o'clock position. This

avoids putting too much pressure on the joint. This

is the same for the front and back of the tyre when

removing or refitting.

Once the tyre is fitted and sealed on the bead,

follow steps I and J to fully seat the profile.

Alternatively, for very tight tyres (particularly

run-flats), it is sometimes easier to remove the

AlloyGator profile. This is best to do by breaking the

bead as usual, securing on the tyre removal machine

and then pushing the tyre down using the machines'

arm. Starting opposite the joining clip, flip the profile

off the wheel (it will be tight). Change the tyre as

normal, but before inflating to seal on the bead,

put the profile back on the rim. Start at the valve

with the joining clip nearest you (6 o'clock position

whilst on the tyre removal machine), and then stretch

the profile over the wheel working your way to the

opposite side. It will be very tight, but with a slight

twist and a push it is possible to achieve this without

breaking the joint and should only take a matter of

seconds. Now inflate the tyre to seal on the bead

with the valve core removed. The profile will most

likely lift a little when the tyre 'pops' onto the bead.

Let the tyre back down and follow steps to re-seat.

Changing a tyre following the above steps in most

cases takes only a matter of 1-2 minutes longer

than a normal tyre change.

Tyre Pressure Issues

In line with vehicle manufacturer's advice, we

recommend that you regularly check your tyre

pressure as part of your normal vehicle maintenance

checks. Fitting our product will not cause tyre

pressure loss but it may in some circumstances

highlight existing issues with the bead seal. If you

experience any loss in pressure we recommend that

you visit the FAQ section of our website for further

information.

Failure to properly maintain your AlloyGators

particularly after any impact could in some

circumstances result in the product coming loose.

Should you fail to maintain the product or address

any damage caused by impact of any kind, any

resulting damage will expressly be the responsibility

of the customer.

Use of any acid based products, particularly cleaning

agents, can cause damage to the profile. Warnings

against the use of these products are located in our

Terms and Conditions, the product fitting instructions

and also the packaging. Any damage resulting from

the use of inappropriate cleaning agents will be the

express responsibility of the customer.

The AlloyGator product is designed for use in normal

driving conditions and up to the legal speed limit. It

is not recommended for use on vehicles intended
